List Sequencer Spreadsheet Data Entry
Tab separated value file
Tab separated value file
A tab separated value (tsv) file can be used to store the settings associated with both analyzer and source
sequences. There are two ways to generate the tsv file. You can set up the source and analyzer sequences
using the front panel (see Chapter 6 ) and then save the sequence settings using the Save front panel
hardkey. The values you have entered are saved into a tsv file. Alternatively, you can use a spreadsheet to
generate a tsv file. The tsv file generated from the spreadsheet is then saved to the D-drive on the test set
in My Documents\Sequences and can be used to set up the List Sequencers.
The tsv file generation can also be done remotely using SCPI commands.
This chapter shows you how to enter data into a spreadsheet to quickly and easily generate a tsv file for
use in the list sequencers. A specially designed spreadsheet template is available on the Agilent web or
simply use the guidelines below to make your own. You can take a copy of the spreadsheet template and
enter values for the Sequence, Acquisitions, Analysis Intervals and source Sequences and Steps as
required.
The tsv file which you generate should be stored in My Documents\Sequences on D-drive of the test set,
in order to use it in the list sequencers. To import the tsv file into the list sequencers, either specify the
file name as a SCPI command parameter or from the front panel use the Recall hardkey menu.

If you set the list sequencers up from the front panel, you can save your sequence settings using the Save
hardkey menu (see “Save and Recall” on page 75).
